We offer a variety of facial services to suit your individual skin care needs.

Here are the details of a Deep Tissue Therapy service typically offered:
Consultation: The session often begins with a consultation between you and the massage therapist. During this time, you can discuss any specific concerns, areas of tension, or medical conditions that may affect the massage treatment.

Preparation: You'll be given privacy to undress to your comfort level and lie down on a massage table, typically draped with sheets or towels for warmth and modesty. The therapist will leave the room momentarily to allow you to prepare.

Choice of Oil: You may have the option to choose a massage oil or lotion for your session. Unscented options are typically available, but you may also have the choice of scented oils if you prefer aromatherapy.

Techniques:

Deep Pressure: Unlike Swedish massage, which uses lighter pressure, deep tissue massage involves applying firm pressure and slow strokes to target deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues.
Stripping: The therapist may use their thumbs, knuckles, or elbows to apply sustained pressure along the length of the muscle fibers to release tension and break up adhesions.
Friction: Circular movements with the fingertips or thumbs may be used to target specific areas of tension and break up knots. Trigger Point Therapy: The therapist may locate and apply pressure to specific trigger points, or areas of localized tension, to alleviate pain and promote relaxation.
Adjustment to Pressure: Throughout the session, the therapist will check in with you regarding the pressure being applied to ensure it's within your comfort level. You can communicate any preferences for lighter or deeper pressure as needed.
Focus Areas: The therapist will focus on specific areas of tension or discomfort that you've identified during the consultation. Common areas for deep tissue massage include the neck, shoulders, upper back, lower back, and legs.
Sensation: Deep tissue massage may involve some discomfort or sensation as the therapist works on deeper layers of muscle tissue. It's important to communicate with the therapist if the pressure becomes too intense or if you experience any pain beyond a "good hurt."
Relaxation: Despite the deeper pressure involved, deep tissue massage can still promote relaxation and stress relief. Deep pressure can help release endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, and induce a state of deep relaxation.
Aftercare Advice: The therapist may provide aftercare advice, such as staying hydrated, applying ice or heat to areas of soreness, and recommendations for stretches or self-care techniques to maintain the benefits of the massage.
Payment and Scheduling: Once the session is complete, you'll have the opportunity to schedule future appointments if desired and settle payment for the service.
